Augmented education: bringing real and virtual learning together

What happens when learning in the "real world" is augmented by use of the virtual, and learning in virtual environments is augmented by use of the "real"? Augmented Education explores learning that takes place at the frontiers of reality. Using electronic devices, learners' interactions with and perceptions of their environment are extended. The book provides a detailed overview of the educational possibilities that are created by technologies which include augmented reality applications, social media, and virtual worlds. It considers how pedagogy and augmenting technologies can be harnessed to inspire, motivate and engage learners and transform their learning experiences
